Okonkwo did not have the advantages other young men had. What are two things that he lacked that put him at a disadvantage?

While his father is still alive, Okonkwo goes to work for Nwakibie. What does Nwakibie give him in return?

What does the practice of offering a kola nut and palm–wine represent?

The first year that Okonkwo planted crops was a memorable year. What was it remembered for?

Locate the paragraph toward the end of Chapter 3 that begins with "Share–cropping was a very slow way of building up …" Okonkwo "was striving desperately to build a barn through share–cropping" while also providing for his father, mother, and siblings. What does "striving to" mean in this context?
